Guests say
The Old Laundry Cottage receives high praise for its peaceful location, comfort, and dog-friendly garden. Guests appreciate the well-equipped kitchen, comfortable furnishings, and the property's cleanliness. The spacious garden and surrounding wildlife add to a relaxing experience, with some guests noting the thoughtful touches like a welcome card and flowers.
Reviews consistently mention the cottage being beautifully clean, with high-quality bedding and towels. One review mentioned dust under beds, but this appears to be an isolated comment in an otherwise exemplary record.
The cottage is celebrated for its tranquil, secluded setting amidst wildlife, with easy access to local attractions and walks. Its central location for exploring Scotland is also highly valued.
Guests find the cottage very comfortable, with special mentions of comfy beds and sofas. The spaciousness and warmth of the cottage contribute to the overall comfort. A single comment about heating issues during one stay slightly impacts the score.
The property is well-equipped with a large kitchen, smart TV, and utility room. However, several reviews mention a small fridge and one notes a slow-draining shower, suggesting room for improvement in facilities and maintenance.
Guests are touched by the thoughtful gestures such as a welcome card, flowers, and a bottle of fizz for a honeymoon. While these gifts are warmly received, they are personal touches from the host and may not be a standard offering for all stays.

Fantastic fully enclosed garden for small dogs to run around. Lovely relaxing surroundings, inside and out with plenty of wildlife to watch. One of the best dog friendly cottages we have stayed in.
